This is the firdt African all-talking film with all-talking experienced and stage-ex- perienced actors to appear on any los +; cal screen. It has everything--auths ebfic African atmosphere, dramatic : plot, romance, comedy and unparal- «acting. ' ed peg of "A Dangerous Wom- an" is based upon a tense, absorbing tale of the jungle country by Margery MH. Lawrence which appeared in Cos- . *.mopolitan magazine.

Clive Brook, - { Neil "Hamilton and Leslie Fenton are the handsome colonial residenters "* who fall captive before the romantic * onslaughts of 'the siren. ; ..Shitz Edwards and Clyde Cook giv. lavishly of their talents in producing the comedy-relief. The set for "A Dangerods Woman" was constructed by a studio architect, Hans Dreier, who lived for three years in the jungle and veldt of Af- rica, He spent months on research and construction work for the set which was as large as a city park. Another former resident of Africa, Gerald Grove, staged the dialog of the film. He taught every member of the cast the native African lang- uage, "Swahili," which is 'used ef- fectively on many of the sequences of the film. Baclanova , the dynamic Russian enchantress of the films, is a versa- tile young woman. Friends »-who know the blond charmer from the Moscow Art The- atre say she is the most capable young: woman in the film colony. In her dressing room Baclanova will show a visitor the piano and table covers. which she made and em» broidered between pictures. The en- tire dressing. room suite. is done in red and gold and very conclusively shows her aptitude as an interior decorator. At home "Baclanova has turbans which she knitted for her own swear furing motor trips. Above the fire- place in the living room the actress has a statue which she modeled of Lady Diana Manners, with whom she appeared in "The: Miracle." "A Dangerous Woman" needs no- " thing more to make it one of the most amazing of audible pictures 'yet seen at the Regent Theatre, Don't miss it! JEAN HERSHOLT A VETER.'
